HEALTH TIP OF THE WEEK
 
Dark circles under eyes? Check your nose
Extra z's may not cure those dark circles under your eyes. One common cause is nasal congestion. When your nose gets congested, veins that usually drain from your eyes into your nose become widened and darker. Rinsing your sinuses with a saltwater solution (mix 1/4 teaspoon sea salt with 2 cups warm water) or over-the-counter saline spray can help relieve nasal congestion and your dark circles.

From Barbara Jacoby, your Guide to Breast Cancer
Study: Red Meat Possibly Linked to Breast Cancer
Most people are very fearful about getting breast cancer and therefore make an effort to be informed about what they might do in order to improve their chances of not getting this disease.

What Not To Say To Someone With Breast Cancer
One of the hardest things to do is to talk to someone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. How are you supposed to know what to say?

I Don’t Want To Be Defined By My Breast Cancer
I can understand that you don’t want to have people look at you differently because you had or have breast cancer. It is tough enough to deal with

What Others Think
One of the biggest tendencies I have noticed among breast cancer survivors is that there is a great tendency to be stressed on a regular basis.
